Howdy,
Recently I started a thread here looking for an obscure front sight for an obscure underhammer.
It didn’t take long for a member to step up with the part I was looking for which he mailed to me free of charge.
With a very slight modification I was able to make the part work in my underhammer.
I’d like to try something…..
If you’re interested in trying out ole fashion hornets nest as wadding in your smooth bore post ‘IN’ in the comments below.
I’ll run this for a week or till intrest dies down then pick a winner and send them a small flat rate box full of hornets nesting to try free of charge as a thank you to the group
Good luck,
Ready….
Go…
 
This needs to be shared. An RFD mail man in town was doing his rout , he opened a families' mail box door , and was instantly unnerved. The inside of the box was crawling with hornets. The mailman slammed the door shut , backed away from the box , and handed the mail to the folks in the residence , and warning the people of the danger in the mail box. No nest material was found.
 
I once cut down a hornet's nest in early winter. I brought into my work to show it off. After it warmed up, Hornets started to crawl out of the bottom hole. I quickly stuffed the nest onto the freezer at work to freeze the little beauties. Layer when at home I opened it and removed the inner comb so that didn't happen again.

Hornets, when they're mashed up, make good patch lube. And spread thick on fingers reduces the stings and swelling.
 
Anybody else interested in a chance to try hornets nest?
I’ll run this for another day or two then pick a winner
